After opening his box and finding few clues to his identity, an amnesiacPeter gets frustrated by his inability to find out where he's come from and what he's supposed to do. As a result, he inadvertently taps into his ability to paint the future and begins painting as Caitlin tries and fails to stop him. After finishing the painting, Peter and Caitlin are shocked to discover that Peter painted two figures standing in front of a warehouse with the symbol over the door and street signs in French. The two wonder if its supposed to be the two of them in the painting and guess the location is Montreal based on the street signs being French and Peter having a plane ticket to Montreal in his box. Before they can discuss the painting more, they receive a call about Ricky's murder.

After Ricky's murder, Peter decides to stop running from his past and tells Caitlin that he's going to Montreal to look for answers since both his painting and the plane ticket point there. Caitlin insists on going with him since they were both in the painting together and so she can "kill the bitch" when Peter finds Ricky's killer.

Outside the Montreal warehouse, Peter compares the painting to the door and finds himself and Caitlin exactly as his painting depicted. Peter rolls up the painting and the two enter the warehouse where they find a note from a man named Adam but no other clues. Frustrated, Peter pleads for a way to know who he is and what the future holds, causing him to inadvertently teleport himself and Caitlin into a desertedNew York City over a year in the future, still carrying the rolled up painting.

Future Peter shows present day Peter a painting he apparently made of the world splitting in half. He explains he has made many such paintings and had many such dreams which is why he is so determined to change the future.

Trivia

The hand which Peter uses to paint or draw changes. For example; in Don't Look Back he uses his right hand to draw but, in Hiros when he finishes Isaac's painting he uses his left hand.

Notes

Tim Sale is responsible for creating the line drawings that become Peter's art (just as he did for Isaac's paintings). However, Tim acknowledgedDave Stewart as the one responsible for giving Peter's art a different style: "Peter's art was made to look different by the great Dave Stewart taking my pencils and giving them a 'colored pencil' effect. I drew it just the same."
